Hypersonic impact flash characteristics of a long-rod projectile collision with a thin plate target

Impact flash occurs when objects collide at supersonic speeds and can be used for real-time damage assessment when weapons rely on kinetic energy to destroy targets. However, the mechanism of impact flash remains unclear. A series of impact flash experiments of flat-head long-rod projectiles impacti...
